What Causes Hard And Fast Heartbeat?

I have noticed for quite sometime that I can feel my heart beat fast as if it stopped, and went back to normal it happens when i am sitting or laying down. I got into the tub and was listening under water, stopped for a second then was beating hard and fast

hello,
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
Routinely there is fluctuation in heart rate.Normal heart rate varies between 60 to 100.Normally one does not feel them.But in state of anxiety and with exercise this can be perceived by thin individuals.However i would suggest you to get ECG done to rule out any irregularity if heart rhythm,
My best wishes
